The Xiaomi Mi Note 2 is expected to be the sequel to the Xiaomi Mi Note Pro. The latter is one of the highest spec'd models to come from Xiaomi's camp. According to tipster @Leaksfly, the Mi Note 2 will continue to feature top-shelf specs. On his Weibo site, @Leaksfly says that the phablet will feature a 5.7-inch, 1440 x 2560 resolution screen. That works out to a 515ppi pixel density.

The Mi Note 2 is rumored to include 4GB of RAM, along with 32GB of internal memory. We could see Qualcomm's ultrasonic fingerprint scanner on board, along with a 16MP rear camera. Android 6.0 might be pre-installed. The tipster adds that the Mi Note 2 will have a metal build, with support for 4G LTE connectivity.

A November 5th release is mentioned, which means that the phone could be outed too early to be powered by the Snapdragon 820 chipset. A MediaTek Helio X20 chip, like the MT6797, might end up powering the phone until next year. That SoC carries a deca-core CPU. One the calendar turns to 2016, we might see another variant of the Mi Note 2 with the Snapdragon 820 inside.
